POCATELLO, ID — BlueRibbon Coalition is excited to announce our third annual Christmas Auction to save trails and keep public lands FOR the public instead of FROM the public. The eBay bidding will start December 1st, 2011.

BRC Auctioneer Del Albright said, “I’m stoked; this auction is kickin’ it for public lands and waterways. Businesses from all over have donated products and goodies to make this year’s auction a record-breaker.”

Raceline Wheels and WARN Industries started off filling the virtual storeroom shelves already. Get ready to see Raceline Monster Diamond Beadlocks and a WARN winch to start with. More partner-contributing businesses will include a long list of recognizable names. Stay tuned.

BRC lists hundreds of items on eBay (as donated by supporting businesses) with all proceeds benefiting their national efforts to save trails and riding areas for our continued access.

“Each bidder is contributing to our winning team,” said Greg Mumm, Executive Director of BRC. “Thanks to the vendors donations, not only is each winning bidder getting some awesome product, they are also contributing to our winning team,” said Greg Mumm, Executive Director of BRC. “This annual eBay auction significantly beefs up our ability to fight back,” Greg added.

This year’s Easter Jeep Safari kicks off this week, and Warn winches started things in style by introducing the media to some new product while also following that up with a trail ride on Cliff Hanger in Moab, Utah.

Off-Road TV personality Jessi Combs was also along for the ride, kicking off the video with a little introduction about the event.

Before the trail action, Warn introduced the group to its new line of winches. The new line of winches is designed as an entry level line that still provides a high-quality winch, and it includes the VR8000, the VR10,000 and the VR 12,000.
